Yes it was. TBH wasn't that impressed with the site. Was very popular so maybe we've just been spoiled but it's not a place we'd return.
First French trip, best location weather wise in September?

Just checked the GBP conversion rate and it works out to £38 per night for 3 adults and a dog. For that you get a super size pitch, access to the pool, site bar, restaurant, snack bar, wifi and a shed. Bargain.

So our final night in France. On the euro tunnel in the morning. Been an absolutely brilliant adventure that far exceed our expectations. Will do a full write up with pros and cons. Fuel costs, pitch cost etc in a few days.
First videos now available.
Worked out the total cost for everything including breakdown cover, pet travel, tolls, etc. Might be useful for some.
I felt a stab of envious pain at your “where the wind blows us” comment!!!
Nice write up. We go to Europe 3-4 times a year. We have a Halifax Clarity card that we use exclusively for foreign trips. No transaction fees & a great exchange rate. The beauty is, that when the statement comes it’s purely the holiday, so we can see exactly what we’ve spent.
Try Green flag for your breakdown cover, we got ours for around £160 with full euro cover AND the boat/trailer. The RAC were the dearest when we were looking, including the Camping Club “Arrival” package.
Have a look at Portugal for your next trip, you won’t be disappointed.

You need a French address (either holiday home or someone willing to let you use their address) to get the dog's chip on the French database, once it's on there you can get a French passport and the cost drops to about 50 Euro a round trip, just for the tapeworm tablet for UK return. Some French vets are more flexible than others.
We go to France 3-4 times a year, staying for the full 180 days and the dogs' passport is linked to our holiday home address in the Alps. Saves a fortune .
Yes have read this. Problem is finding a vet willing to do it.
We use the vets in Moutier, he's super helpful
If you could pass on the address/contact details that would be much appreciated.
